The Return of Rev. Wright

After weeks of silence, Sen. Barack Obama's controversial former pastor is speaking out, and once again, making headlines. The Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. appeared at the National Press Club in Washington this morning, where he reiterated comments that the U.S. government was guilty of terrorism and that it may have created AIDS to destroy minorities. Wright also deflected his critics, explaining that their attacks are really assaults on the whole black church, not on him. Will this new round of fiery remarks by Wright further hurt Obama's bid for the Democratic presidential nomination? ABC's David Wright reports.

ABC's Nick Watt looks at what life would be like in a world without men. Read more here.

"Hannah Montana" Star Exposed

Pop star Miley Cyrus is adored by tweens around the country, but newly released photos taken for an upcoming issue of "Vanity Fair" could threaten her squeaky clean image among fans. The photos, taken by celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz, show the 15-year-old star of "Hannah Montana" posing seemingly nude, covered only by a satin sheet. Cyrus says she is "embarrassed" by the picture and is apologizing to fans. ABC's Brian Rooney reports a "Sign of the Times."
